Huh.. Feels like a perfectly normal thing to ask for to get to know their audience, but demanding it is a really weird decision.

It’s 100 % because you no longer need to understand how information technology works in order to use it.

So our parents didn’t know because the tech didn’t exist (or came late in their life), and our kids because they never needed to learn.

I'd honestly be less mad about that.

A 25,000 sqft ballroom is opulence, a 25,000 sqft ball pit is an international attraction! In time it might also lead to the discovery of new life forms..

I have no idea about the meme format (though I see this is a cross post from anti memes), but the picture is a reference to a famous legend about exponential growth:

Allegedly, the inventor of chess asked the ruler of India (where it was invented) for payment in the form of rice, with a single grain in the first square and the amount doubling for each subsequent square. The ruler agreed, believing the amount to be small, but soon found out there was not enough rice in India to pay the man.

“Système d’exploitation” feels like an apt description of Windows 11 😆

The lump sum will grow to be worth more than the annuity over the same period if properly invested

Too high speed through the corner.

The tram was coming from the right side of the picture and was turning left (to exit out the bottom of the picture). Considering it went all the way to the back wall of that store it must have been going pretty fast..

I mean, Linux (and the entire ecosystem) is a fundamentally socialist concept.

I think they’re talking about the debate, not the election (look at the hashtags).
